This place did not have me listed with everything I had on my online reservation. Paid for late checkout and checked with staff 3 times to make sure I didn't get charged. Next day I had a manager knocking at the door telling me that I was going to be charged another night because I was still in the room. I showed him receipt of my online payment for the late checkout since I booked the room and he was confused. In not staying here again. It's not my job to make my own stay at the hotel go smoothly that's why I pay and they should take care of the rest.
I enjoyed my stay at the Graduate. The air conditioner was sub-par, but luckily it wasn't very hot when I stayed there. The daytime staff was quite friendly and accommodating, the even let me check in a couple of hours early without a problem; I can't say the same for the overnight staff. The elevator was annoyingly slow.
Very nice boutique style hotel extremely close to All that the ASU campus has to offer!
The hotel was very accommodating to all of our needs!
I was in town for a conference and I stayed at this hotel, which I truly enjoyed my overall stay.
The Graduate is the only choice for me when I visit my son at ASU. The location is perfect...right across the street from his dorm, the property is awesome, and the staff is the best! I just got back from my 4th stay with them, and already can't wait for the next time!
Very cute and clean hotel rooms. The only thing is that parking is not free.
Pleasant Staff! Liked the diner. Short walk to Mill Street!
Very cute and clean hotel rooms. The only thing is that parking is not free. Parking fee is 6 dollars.
The decor is cool, the staff a little too low key, the space was very party oriented which makes sense being close to ASU. Public spaces weren't super clean and someone urinated in the elevated.
Hotel is extensively redone in a sixties style. Great place for breakfasts and bar at night has a limited menu. Staff was wonderful.
Am always pleased with the room and the staff when I stay
Our experience was very enjoyable. We liked the artwork and the furniture.
It was centrally located, so enabled me not to need a car. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The hotel appears to have had a fairly recent remodeling, and they did a good job. This place has some history, starting out as a Howard Johnson hotel many years ago. It all worked well for me.
Its all good, I wish it had free wifi, plenty of drinking water at the room and a better AC system for temperature control.
The location can't be beat. Directly across from my son's dorm. The hotel is awesome! The staff is friendly, the decor is adorable, and the margaritas in the restaurant are great!
Used to be fun & trendy, now not at all! "The Normal" diner was a major plus & you could get food up to your room, now hours are very limited so dinner isn't even an option..The food at Tapacubo was never amazing but I had hoped it'd get better by now, not the case! Their idea of a cocktail waitress by the pool is sending a waitress out to take orders at her convenience, even though the place was a ghost town service was still non exsistant so I finally got sick of waiting, went in & ordered 2 out of 3 rounds inside! Complimentary old school glass bottled soda is also no longer! They're now $3.00, when u can just get soda for $1.50 out of the vending machine by the ice machine!! What was once 1 of our favorite places to stay is now the bare minimum..
Kitschy decor enlivens this property, which is not new by any means, but everything works, which is what matters to my family. Staff --especially ASU student Tyler--is simply terrific. Rooms are comfortable--two queen bed rooms accomodated parent and two teens just fine. Location directly across the street from ASU campus is very convenient. Parking fee is reasonable, though in the heat of the desert I would have preferred covered parking--this is a simple parking lot. Really good value for the money.
Not worth it if you don't need its nearness to the ASU campus. Extra charge for parking. Room is small for the category. Not enough electrical outlets. Room safe was useless due to missing batteries for its lock.
